{"pk":30988,"title":"PDP Models for Meter Perception","subtitle":null,"abstract":"A basic problem in music perception is how a listener develops a hierarchical representation of the metric structure of music of the sort proposed in the generative theory of Lerdahl & Jackendoff (1983).'This paper describes work on a constraint satisfaction approach to the perception of the metric structure of music in which many independent \"agents\" respond to particular events in the music, and where a representation of the metric structure emerges as a result of distributed local interactions between the agents. This approach has been implemented in two P D P simulation models that instantiate the constraints in different ways. The goal of this work is to develop psychologically and physiologically plausible models of meter perception.","language":"eng","license":{"name":"","short_name":"","text":null,"url":""},"keywords":[],"section":"Poster Presentations","is_remote":true,"remote_url":"https://escholarship.org/uc/item/1q21117r","frozenauthors":[{"first_name":"Jacqueline","middle_name":"A.","last_name":"Jones","name_suffix":"","institution":"Brooklyn College of the City University of New York","department":""}],"date_submitted":null,"date_accepted":null,"date_published":"1990-01-01T18:00:00Z","render_galley":null,"galleys":[{"label":"PDF","type":"pdf","path":"https://journalpub.escholarship.org/cognitivesciencesociety/article/30988/galley/20837/download/"}]}
